Special to the Globe.
HUDSON, Wis, Sept. 3.-Investigation
into the accounts of the late f. II. Har-
vey, as secretary of the North Hudson
Building and Loan association, mention
of whose reported defalcatiOn was made
in Thursdays GLOBE, indicates as rot
ten state of affairs as the most suspi-
cious of the stockholders could have
imagined. The amount of his shortage
is now found to be in the neighborhood
of $4,000, with probability of further
investigation increasing the amount.
His methods were not characterized by
shrewdneSS, and it is generally won
dered that the directors did not realize
the state of affairs long ago, as his de-
falcations extend over a period of sew
eral years. Many of the stockholders are
vehement in expressing their indigna-
'tion, and talk of demanding
an inquiry into the liability of
from Harvey to the association
has been found, and there is nothing in
the records to show that such bond
was ever issued. A large part of the
monthly dues of the stockholders, money
received on loans, etc., was paid Har-
vey on the streets, part of which he paid
into the treasury and pOcketed the bal
ance. In paying matured stock he paid
but part of the face. and in some in
stances, when pressed for the balance,
gave check ON his private account.
The money on hand will pay about 60
per cent. of the amount paid in, and
probably all stock will be assessed to
make up the deficiency. There is pros
pect of music in the air before the busi-
ness is satisfactorily settled

Wisconsin Central earnings for the year up
to and inclusive of the third week in August
have reached a total on the system of 81
25S,578. 1t is calculated that the gross
earnings for the year, including the six
months earnings on the Penokee division,
will approximate S3.4O0,000. The Penokee
division would now be returning much bet
ter earnings were the shipping facilities in
better shape. There are no statements made
up in former years upon which estimates of
net earnings can be based. The reorganization
plans are progressing well, and things will
be in better condition all around before the
close of the year.
saThe earnings of the St. Paul & Duluth for
the last week in August were S57. .606, against
S52 $50 for the same time last year. For the
month the earnings were SI61 ,253. against

A RECREANT KNIGHT.
He is Absent. and So is u Large
Sum of Money.

Special to the Globe.
MADISON, Wis, Sept. 3.-When ap-
preached to-day by the GLOBE repre-
sentative relative to the rather sudden
disappearance of John w. Carman,
sembly of Knights of Labor, NJ. j.
Cantwell and f. A. Detloff, prominent
officials of the organization, declined to
discuss to any extent the question of
Carman'S defalcation. While they did
not deny the report of his having in his
possession considerable amount of
funds of the Knights, still they refused
to divulge anything as to the amount
However, despite the determined effort
of the members of the organization to
keep the matter from the public, it has
leaked out, and, from sources which are
sufficiently reliable to base the state
ment on, that Carman has left the K. of
l.. minus several hundred dollars of
real good Doodle. AS nearly as can be
learned, that gentleman, who, by the
way, recently figured quite conspic-
uously i'll Grand army circles here,
had appropriated the ''Surplus" to
his own private uses, and when called
upon to replace it, unceremoniouSly
skipped for climeS more congenial to
his health, Shortly before his departure
he succeeded in raising a rumpus at a
meeting of the local q. A. r. post by re-
moving his badges and other insignia of
membership, and denouncing the order
as political organization. He after
wards cowed down, swallowed his own
words and published card denying do
ing anything of the kind. However, the
feeling of the members was so strong
against him that it is thought it helped
in Fastening his departure. The Knights
of Labor are not the only ones anxious
to know his Whereabouts, as it is now
reported that several creditors would
be very pleased to know as well. Word
was received here to-day from James
vile, Wis, saying that Carman, who
formerly resided there, left that city
with large number of bad debts and
under charges of croOkedness. So far
as can be learned no attempt has been
made to apprehend the defaulter. A
portion of the cash with which he has
fled belonged to district assembly COM
prising two lower tiers of counties in
this state.

John MacdOnald's intention to repudiate

MONTANA LEGISLATURE.
A Big Fight Ahead Over the Cas-
cade County Bill.


Special to the Globe.
HELENA, Mont. Sept. 3.-The legis-
lature adjourned this afternoon until
Monday. The members have been in
session for six hours, but no measure
has vet passed both branches. The bill
to create Cascade county, regarded with
so much interest in this section of Mon
tana, appeared i'll the lower house and
was referred. 1t was put through the
council so quickly that the opposition
had not time to develop. Now its an
tagonists are beginning to fight and
will bring great pressure to bear to de-
feat it in the lower house. To-day the
Helena board of trade called mass
meeting of citizens and adopted strong
resolutions, opposing the dismember-
ment of Lewis and Clarke counties, of
townships if the bin passes: Fort Ben
ton, in Choteau county, which is also
cut into by the Cascade bill, is violently
opposed to it, and is sending protest
alter protest againstit. Remonstrances
are also coming in from the farming re-
gions of this county. 1t is hard to tell
what fate the bill will meet in the
house; but the impression to-day is that
if il passes it will pass in an amended
form. A bill was introduced into the
lower house to-day amending the bounty
law of last session, which has cost the
Gerritory so much money. The bill
aims to continue the law in force in
modified form. One of the probabilities
OF the session is a law for the registra-
ton oil voters. A measure of this kind
passed one branch of the legislature at
the regular session last winter, but was
killed in the other house. Its friends
will bring it up again next week. AS
there has been a great outery IN the
past over fraudulent voting in Montana,
many are interested in seeing such
law passed. Tomorrow both houses

The Developments Complete
Surprise to the Stock Market.
New YORK, Sept. 3.-The develop
ments published this morning regarding
the Baltimore & Ohio negotiations were
the stock market, but they all formed
decision to buy everything on the list at
the opening of the exchange, and prices
moved up with unprecedented rapidity
The excitement in the board was in
tense and broke 15 above the pre-
viouS sales in order to get stock ahead
of their competitors. The principal
gain was made in Reading, which at
one time showed an advance over Fri
days close of 53s, and Manhattan re-
corded gain of 81. Toward the end
of business the excitement subsidized and
and the impression began to grow that
the benefit to accrue from the contract
was over-estimated. One of the heavi-
est operators in the street said after the
close:
There is no benefit to be gained from the
settlement except that which might accrue
to the creditors of the Baltimore & Ohio.
They are essentially the same parties who
have taken the preferred stock and the bonds,
and it is simply matter of bonding the
floating debt. This may have saved the
Baltimore q Ohio from going into a receivers
hands on account of the floating debt, but
that is
ALL THAT HAS BEEN DONE.
Rates cannot be advanced 100 per cent as
was the case when the West Shore settlement
was made. AS far as a telegraph settlement
is concerned, that is further away now than
ever. The Baltimore d Ohio is now in strong
hands and will be run in conjunction with
the Pennsylvania d Reading for the benefit
of the latter and if Gould buys the telegraph
system it will be at the syndicates terms and
there may be fight of years before a con-
solidation is made.
Vice President De Castro, of the Com
mercial Cable company, was averse to
talking on the matter. He said that
Mr.. Mackay was still in San Francisco
and had no intention of coming to this
city for some time. The negotiations
with Mr.. Gould had not been renewed,
but that would not affect the land lines.
Even though Gould should get the Bait
imore I Ohio system the position of the
Postal company would not be weakened,
but, instead, materially strengthened, ,as
it would then be the only opposition
line. The stories to the effect that
Mackay had signifed his WILLINGNESS to
